What will happen to the turtles?
 

Have you ever thought of the turtles' future? What will happen after nick finishes the tv show, and the movie? Will they keep it, adbandon it. Will it continue in comics,

or will the turtles become a marketing tool, and be sold to another net work. What would that mean for the idw comic?

Or is it some thing else.

What do you think?

I can see IDW continue to do the comics long after the show is canceled.

Stop looking so far ahead and enjoy what you bloody have.

Oh don't worry, i do. But I do like to guestimate the future some times. (I'm usaly wrong when I do though)

the turtles will probably pick up some part time jobs to do...mikey will go back to his entertaining business, donny will continue IT support service, raph might consider apply to be a ufc fighter...leo might think abt open a ninjastu school

They will go though anorher reboot.

Agreed. When the 4kids cartoon was airing I doubt anyone was thinking about a third show after that.

Just enjoy what we get.

The surge in popularity the Turtles are receiving now lead me to believe that they'll be around for a good while. After the show gets cancelled, there will be another and another. The Turtles could possibly become as iconic as Batman or Superman. Only time will tell.

What?... I believe that they already are.:)

Agreed. They already are pretty much.

TMNT will probably always exist in some form or another even if it goes into hibernation for a while.

The Turtles are nowhere as big as Batman or Superman. Sure they may have some staying power, but Batman and Superman have been around since the 40's. They are cultural icons. The Turtles are just a fad by comparison.

Wow! Don't make come over there and slap you silly!:P

I dunno, Jester. The TMNT have come a long way since their humble beginings, and they've become quite a sensation over the last couple decades. I'm betting by the time we're all old geezers the Ninja Turtles will be just as iconically acclaimed as all the classic DC and Marvel characters.

Never happen. I'm sorry to say, but it just won't.

They've been around for nearly 30 years now, and are pop culture icons.

How many people still knows who the Turtles are despite not having watched/read any of it in years?

Hey you'd be surprised what people still remember from their youth. I am quite concerned though not just for the fate of the TMNT but many popular fictional characters from the last few generations.

Way too early to tell. We don't yet know how well this new show will be received, though I imagine it'll do well enough. Let alone how it'll progress, and how that progress will be received. We know pretty much nothing about the new movie atm, so it's even harder to predict how it'll be received, and any theoretical sequels.

If things go well, I would guess that the new Nick show will be around for a good while, and that eventually Nick will end it to do a new show set in the future of their first show. Showing the turtles aged a bit. Maybe even introducing a bit of a style change too.

Then if the new movie does well, that'll spawn at least two sequels, if not more if those do well. All the time helping increase the presence of the turtles on the modern market.

I imagine the comics will continue to some degree no matter how well the new show and movie do. Though I imagine the success of those two will help increase the turtle's comic presence too. Particularly with the inclusion of tie-in comics to the show and movie.

Though this is all theoretical. Things could develop rather differently. We'll just have to wait and see. No matter what, the turtles gaining more presence is a good thing, and I hope we don't see a break in things for quite a while.

they just need a good movie to boost it up, like transformer

At some point they'll no longer exist, but we'll probably all be super old or dead, so who cares?

You mean the people who like Ralph? Or the orange one? Or the one with the swords? Come on now....
